      I feel like I've seen something like this before but I've been unable to find it. I always apply my layer attribute to my overall group rather than the actual geometry. However, 3ds Max doesn't recognize layer attributes done this way. Is there a plugin out there that will find the layer name on the group and propagate it down to the actual geometry?

      Thanks,

        huh?

        What do you mean by layer attributes? Reading it again I think your asking for a plugin that will put all geometry onto the layer of the group it is inside of. So fi a group is Layer "Ball", typically we would leave all geometry on layer 0. But you would like a plugin to put all geometry inside that group onto layer "Ball".

        Something like that, right?

          Precisely! Why didn't I think of the ol' 'layer ball' analogy? πŸ˜‰
